BLOY Léon (1846-1917).
67 L.A.S. "Léon Bloy" and 2 P.A.S., Paris, Montmartre, "Chameaux-sur-Seine", Créteil, Le Tréport, Bourg-la-Reine, 1905-1917, to Léon BELLÉ, bookseller-printer in Lagny (Seine-et-Marne)| 110 pages of various sizes, most with envelope or address, mounted on tabs in a volume in-4, red morocco binding, spine with nerves, black morocco lined counterplates, moiré red silk endpapers, case (Semet & Plumelle).
Very beautiful correspondence to the printer of Lagny ("Cochons-sur-Marne") who became a friend of Bloy. Full of ardor, humor, ferocity and often pathos, it testifies to the intense literary activity of the writer, his material distress, his optimism, his ardent faith, and his pity for the country at war. The author of Le Désespéré declares himself "the most hopeful man in the world". We can only give here a quick overview of this magnificent correspondence, published in May-June 1951 in the Mercure de France.
